KIGALI - Prime Minister Bernard Makuza yesterday said that Human Rights principles are deeply rooted in the Rwandan culture. Makuza said this while officiating at the opening ceremony of the global human rights conference held at Serena Hotel yesterday, “Principles of human rights were deeply rooted in our culture. However these were destroyed by colonialists, who introduced divisionism, in which part of its inhabitants were taken as a second class in their own country and the nation ended up in Genocide,” Makuza said. The PM said Rwanda is bringing back elements of our culture to foster the country’s advancements.
